How to pan and zoom multiple stills in a grid

Hello,
happy new year to the community!
I recently did a lot of research in this forum and for the most problems in my project i could find adequate solutions in PrE 11 which I treated myself to purchase at Xmas
But there's still something left: I'd like to align several rectangular cells in a grid, each containing a still image that is animated by some pan and zoom.
I cannot achieve it via the pan and zoom tool since it is restricted to the frame ratio and displays full screen. Then I tried to use key framing for the pan and zoom and cropping the photos. But the crop was scaled together with the photos and didn't remain fix. My last hope was to use an alpha mask which would have the advantage that i could create a fixed grid. But the mask was affected by the animation as well...
I suspect, after reading the post http://forums.adobe.com/thread/996581, that this is not possible without creating intermediate video files for all photos. So my question is if there's still some way to achieve the task or if it can be confirmed that the intermediate videos are the only way.
Regards,
phylome

The only way I know to do this in Premiere Elements is to create your pan & zoom for each image and then output each using Publish & Share/Computer/AVI with the DV preset.
Once you've created all of them, put each on its own separate video track, stacked on above the other, sizing and positioning each to fit in your grid.

  • How to set the duration of each pic in a slideshow (and also how to pan and zoom)

    I have about 30 pictures I would like to add to a slide show.
    When I add them the duration for each picture is set to 6 seconds.
    I would like this changed to 4 seconds.
    But manually changing the duration of each individual picture, one by one, is a slow and tedious task.
    Is there a way of changing the duration of all my pictures at the same time, from 6 seconds to 4 seconds ?
    Or can I change a setting so that when I insert my pictures the duration is set to 4 seconds instead of 6 seconds ?
    As for the pan and zoom, I have seen the pan and zoom effect but this has a black border around the pictures as they zoom in and out.
    For example, when zooming in the picture starts small with a black border all round the edge.
    When zooming out the picture ends small with a black border all round the edge.
    Is there a way to pan and zoom starting with a full screen when zooming in, and ending with a full screen when zooming out ?
    Thereby not showing any ugly black borders.
    My Nokia N73 phone can do it !
    You can view the pictures as a slide show and when it pans and zooms it looks so much better because it does not show any black borders.
    The picture ALWAYS fills the screen even though it is panning and zooming.

    If you go to Edit/Preferences, you can set the default duration for each slide. This will affect only those photos you've imported into your project AFTER changing this preference.
    You should also turn off the preference for Scale to Frame Size, so your photos do not fill the screen. (And, for efficiency's sake, make sure your source photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs at the top of this forum.)
    You can also set the duration of each slide by selecting all of the stills you want to include on in your slideshow, right-clicking and selecting the Create Slideshow option.

  • Pan and zoom over multiple still pictures

    Is there a way to apply general pan and zoom over multiple  still pictures simultaneously?  I seem to remember doing this in PE10, but don't recall the steps.

    Chuck700
    If you are in Premiere Elements 10 Windows and not using the program's Pan and Zoom Tool, the suggestion is to apply a pan and zoom effect to the one photo.
    Then, select that photo, Edit Menu/Copy. Then, select all the photos that you want to have the same pan and zoom effect.
    Now Edit Menu/Paste Attributes.
    There is no "Apply Pan & Zoom to all Slides" for this as in the Photoshop Elements Elements Organizer Elements Slideshow Editor preferences.
    I suppose you could create your slideshow in Premiere Elements 10's Elements Organizer Create/Slideshow so that you
    could use this "Apply Pan & Zoom to all Slides" for the pans and zooms, and then use theElements Organizer Slideshow Editor's Output option "Edit with Premiere Elements Editor" to get the slideshow into the Premiere Elements workspace.
    If you are using Premiere Elements 10 or 11's Pan and Zoom Tool, then please check out my blog post on the topic of applying the same pan and zoom effect to more than one photo.

  • How to time stretch a picture frame (not video) that I have panned and zoomed in Premiere Elements 11?

    Previously used Premiere elements 11 and could zoom in on a picture frame, but also Time stretch it, so the zoom would be slow.  Cannot figure out how to do this in Premiere elements 11.  When I have applied the zoom, but go to right click on the picture frame, it does not allow me to change the time.  It stays on 100.  It will only allow me to change actual video clips.  Does anyone know how to really slow down the zoom on a picture frame, or a way to use the Time stretch like I could do in Elements 7?  Thanks!

    jshook525
    I do confirm your observation on the Time Stretch Speed %/Duration available fields for a still in Premiere Elements 7 vs 11 Presets Horizontal 640 x 480 Zoom In.
    If you want to go with Presets rather than manual keyframing of Scale property in Motion Panel expanded, then...
    1. Given your 5 second still on the Timeline.
    2. Drag the fx Effect Horizontal Image Zoom/640 x 480 Zoom In into the 5 second still on Video Track.
    When you do that two Scale keyframes are automatically placed at the beginning and end of the  5 second clip.
    3. Change the duration of the clip, with one of the following
    a. click and drag to the right the right edge of the clip to increase its duration
    or
    b. right click the clip, select Time Stretch, and set the duration to the increased value....if you had been in 7 the Speed% = 50,
    then the duration you would find is 10 seconds (00;00;10;00). Here no Speed% visible opportunity, just set the duration = 00;00;10;00.
    c. go to Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded, and move the 2nd Scale Keyframe to the the right. In this
    example at the 10 second mark, the new duration of the clip.
    "Presets" has its limitation - pan or zoom instead of pan and zoom, and other. In what needs to be done here, it probably would have been quicker
    just to do the Scale keyframing yourself in Motion Panel expanded with the Toggle Animation technique Scale (for Zoom) and Position (for Pan).
    There is more to all this, but for now let me know if any of the above could get your through to your goal.
    Thanks

  • How do I use pan and zoom on vertical photographs without editing out most of the photo?

    I am trying to make a slide show.  When I have a vertically oriented (portrait) photograph and try to use pan and zoom, the feature eliminates much of the photograph.  It seems the pan and zoom feature only works for horizontally oriented (or landscape) photographs.  Is there a way to use pan and zoom on vertically oriented photographs to capture all or most of the photograph and zoom in from there?

    gtavetian
    I decided to use a different strategy to convey the principle. It is most likely that your photos will be 4:3 and you may or may not be taking them into a SD widescreen or HD widescreen project. With all those variables, to get the basic ideas across, I am going to use two models with a generalized scheme.
    For this post....
    NTSC DV Standard Project - Portrait Oriented JPG, in this case 2448 x 3264 3:4. Could be any Portrait Oriented JPEG any pixel dimensions. But best plan ahead for what you have and what you would like.
    Manually set the project preset to NTSC DV Standard.
    File Menu/New/Project and, in the new project dialog, set for NTSC DV Standard.
    Before exiting the final dialog in that area, put a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project". Close out of there.
    Next go to the Edit Menu/Preferences/General and remove the check mark next to "Default Scale to Frame Size". Close out of the preferences.
    In the opened Premiere Elements Expert workspace, use Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets to get your portrait oriented JPG to the beginning of the Timeline.The 2448 x 3264 3:4 will overwhelm the space in the Edit Mode monitor. That is to be expected. The Timeline Indicator is at the beginning of the Timeline @ 00;00;00;00.
    a. Click on the Timeline jpg to select it. With Motion Panel/Scale property (with Constrain Proportions with check mark), you want to scale the image so that the whole is shown within the mode space. You want to see the image's bounding box. See the next screenshot. The bounding box is the white outline around the image. It has handles.
    After the scaling to get that look, the important information that you want is on the right in the Motion Panel
    Position values 360.0 and 240.0
    Scale value 14.6%.
    The next phase is as before (See post 21 of this thread...but much of that is repeated below and modified for what is being described at this moment)
    With Timeline Indicator at the beginning of Video Track 1 (00;00;00;00), go to Tools Menu/Pan and Zoom and click on it to open  the Pan and Zoom workspace.
    In the Pan and Zoom workspace, you will see that the feature has created the initial two Focus Frames for you. 
    Do not do anything to Focus Frame 1 in the bin below the image window.
    Click on Focus Frame 2 in the bin below the image window and set the Focus Frame as wanted.
    Click on New Frame in the panel to the left of the image window  to create a third Focus Frame which will appear in the bin. Set Focus Frame as wanted.
    Click on New Frame in the panel  to the left of the image window to create a fourth Focus Frame which will appear in the bin. Set the Focus Frame as wanted.
    Click Done to the Pan and Zoom workspace so that you are back in the Premiere Elements Expert workspace with its Timeline.
    In the Expert workspace,
    Move the Timeline Indicator to the last frame of the selected pan and zoom clip 1. In Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded, (Toggle Animation should be active at this point), make sure Position settings are 360.0 and 240.0 and Scale = 14.6% (with Constrain Proportions used).Then go to Tools Menu/Freeze Frame and set the freeze frame for 3 seconds and hit Insert in Movie.
    Then move the Timeline Indicator to the first frame of the selected pan and zoom clip 1. In Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded (Toggle Animation should be active at this point), make sure Position settings are 360.0 and 240.0 and Scale = 14.6% (with Constrain Proportions used). Then go to Tools Menu/Freeze Frame and set the freeze frame for 3 seconds and hit Insert in Movie.
    Render.
    The Timeline content sequence from start to finish should be:
    Freeze Frame 3 seconds First Frame of pan and zoom clip 1
    Pan and zoom clip 1
    Freeze Frame 3 seconds Last Frame of pan and zoom clip 1
    Freeze Frame 3 seconds First Frame of pan and zoom clip 2
    Pan and zoom clip 2
    Freeze Frame 3 seconds Last Frame of pan and zoom clip 2
    A Dissolve/Cross Dissolve Video Transition (1.00 seconds) is placed between end of Freeze Frame  Last Frame of pan and zoom clip 1 and beginning of Freeze Frame 3 First Frame of pan and zoom clip 2.
    Additional pan and zoom portrait oriented jpgs to the Timeline would be treated as above.
    What was done above can be applied to any photo with any project preset. The basic idea is to
    a. Start with determing the whole picture Position and Scale values as described with the Default Scale to Frame Size option disabled.
    b. Do pan and zoom with Pan and Zoom Tool in its workspace
    c. Return to Premiere Elements workspace to apply your Position and Scale values to the last frame of pan and zoom clip so that the last frame presents in full clip view. Then go to the first frame of the pan and zoom clip, and apply the Position and Scale values to it so that the first frame presents in full clip view.
    d. If you want the whole view to present for more than that one frame, do the freeze frame at each end, with the wanted duration.
    e. Apply emblessments as wanted, such as video transitions, an animated graphic flying through the last scene, etc.
    We could take this same clip into a NTSC AVCHD Full HD 1080p30 project and do the same, except the Position and Scale values and the Scale % determined at the beginning and used subsequently will be different than in the NTSC DV Standard project.
    Please check out the above and see how you do with it. If problems, please indicate where and we will work through them.
    Thanks.

    I would be glad for the opportunity to customize a Premiere Elements 12 answer to your Premiere Elements 12 issue.
    But, I want to make sure that we are together on the details. This is my understanding of what you have written. Please review and let me
    know if I am misinterpreting anything that you have written.
    You have a video created in Windows Movie Maker.
    How did you output the video from Windows Movie Maker...wmv or mp4, what was the frame size and frame rate of that export?
    Next you import that video into Premiere Elements 12 (can we assume that this is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit?)
    From what you wrote, you have applied a pan and zoom effect to your video in Premiere Elements.
    Now you go to export the Premiere Elements 12 Timeline content with your video with the pan and zoom applied.
    But, the pan and zoom effect is not seen in playback of the export.
    Is all of the above correct so far?
    If so....we are going to need some more details from you...
    a. What is the project preset that you or the project are setting to match the properties of the video coming from Movie maker? See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Rate, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out.
    b. Are you applying the pan and zoom effect with the Pan and Zoom Tool, fx Effects Presets, or keyframing the Scale (for Zoom) and
    Position (for Pan) in the Motion Panel expanded?
    c. What are you selecting as your export in Publish+Share/. Please give details...are you using default settings or customizing the export
    setting under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset selected?
    I am suspecting some sort of mismatch of your project settings or some problems with working with the Pan and Zoom tool. I need
    your answers to help me help you. If I have written anything that you do not understand, please let me know. I will re-write if necessary
    so that we are in sync to resolve the issue.
    Thanks.

    Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen.  They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option.  Where are all the options I had in PS10?  Also...Can I burn this to a DVD?

    The changes have brought improvements but also drawbacks compared with the old slideshow editor.
    The templates are now fairly fixed but I find the “Classic Dark” gives reasonable results with some panning and you can click the audio button and browse you PC for any track. Unfortunately there are only three speed choices linked to the music track. The improvement for most people is that you can now export to your hard drive at 720p or 1080p and upload to sites like YouTube and Vimeo.

  • Is there an easy way to pan and zoom still slides in PE4?

    Either i'm totally stupid, or why is it so hard to pan and zoom still slides in PE4?
    I'm trying to create a slide show in PE4, and i want to pan and zoom on each slide -- nothing overly fancy, but i want to control where the beginning and end point is for each zoom. It's really easy to do this in PSE 6 -- it shows you green and red boxes for where the pans/zooms begin and end and you can just grab the boundaries and change them. in PE 4, it seems you have to use presets (which are only pans OR zooms) or resort to Keyframes which are very complicated and VERY POORLY explained in the Adobe PE4/PSE6 classroom in a book.
    Is there an easy way to do pans and zooms without being a rocket scientist?

    Eric,
    The ability to use Keyframing in infinitely powerful. However, with that power comes some hand-work.
    However, once one has their head around the concept of Keyframing, the mechanics of it, plus the options, it becomes easy and second nature. It's getting to that point, that requires a bit of work and practice. I second Steve's tip link, as a great place to start. Once you become comfortable with the power, you'll likely never go back to any form of "Random Pan & Zoom."
    Now, the work that I do is usually very tightly scripted. Each "move" depends on the exact subject and what I, or the director, want at that moment, with that image. I often have this part figured out, before I re-size the images for Import. If I need more Pan, then I'll go a bit larger. Less Pan and I'll get it right at the DVD frame size (720x480 PAR 0.9, in my case).
    Learning which Panels to have open, and when, will go a long way to making the experience easier and more enjoyable, so setting up one's Workspace is very important. Big, honking monitors also make the editing experience more pleasant.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • The motion on a pan and zoom over a still is at times a tad shaky.  What might I be doing wrong?

    I'm currently evaluating FPC X vs Premiere Pro.  With one exception FPC X has Premiere beaten.  My test project is a slide show in which some images have pan and zoom applied.  The general formula I follow is to establish the shot at the iinitial position and scale.  Then move to the ending position and scale, and hold that for a second.  On some shots the movement wobbles during the pan.  I've no extreneous keyframes and I've redone a few slides several times with the same result.   I'd really like to use FCP X, the UI is really crisp and it's less then half the price but I can apply the same fx and they work smorothly. I hope I'm doing something wrong, any advice?   If I decide FPC X should I go the extra $50 and get Motion5? Does it work better?

    If the images fill the screen, then Tom's suggestion to keyframe the crop function is clearly the easiest way to deal with it.
    Otherwise, I can confirm that my earlier suggestion to change the interpolation at each keyframe from "smooth" to "linear" avoids the wobbling.
    I did a small test by having a picture move horizontally, then stopping for a while at the right edge, and then move down and out of the frame. Like predicted, it moved up before it started down. Changing the interpolation to linear solved the issue.

  • Why does Pan and Zoom mess up my timeline

    Please forgive my ignorance as I am relatively new to this.
    I just about have a finished video which include video clips and still images. I just went to add a Pan and Zoom effect to a still image and when I hit done it messed up my timeline - See below
    First picture is the finished movie
    Second picture you can see I added a Pan and zoom to the still image the marker is on
    I can see the Pan and Zoom effecting the track it's on but why does it effect multiple tracks and can you please tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance

    Looks like Premiere Elements 12. On what computer operating system. Just in case we need to get into version specific details.
    But this looks like an Premiere Elements issue in general.
    Use of the Premiere Elements Pan and Zoom Tool results in the increased duration for the still to which the pan and zoom effect has
    been applied.. The extent of the increased duration depends on how many frames you added to the effect. That was a just in case mention, you may have
    known all that already.
    I point that out since the increased duration of your still probably triggered the chain reaction in all parts of the Timeine.
    There are various maneuvers to control disturbances of the existing Timeline when a new component is added. In this case, at this time, I am not sure what triggered your particular chain of events. But, please look at the following as a possible control of the situation that you described.
    Select all at one time the content that you want to stay together, click anywhere in the selection and select Group. You can ungroup
    this group later if you want. The individual components of the Group will move as one until you ungroup. To make the selection of
    all the clips going into the Group, draw a rectangle with the mouse cursor to select those clips.
    Another thought might be to do the still pan and zoom in an isolated unused portion of the Timeline and then move it into place in the
    existing Timeline, holding down the Ctrl or Alt key as you make the placement.
    Please consider and then let us know if any of that worked for you.
    Thank you.

  • Pan and zoom effect

    Hi there,
    How do you create a pan and zoom effect, like a video effect, on a picture? The technical term I believe is the Ken Burns effect from a still imagery. I know it can be done in Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro but I want to know if it is possible in InDesign (CS6). It tried the overlays option but it only created pan and zoom effect that the viewer needs to scroll. It want it to move by itself.  I hope that makes sense ))
    Thanks.
